IMPROVEMENT IN CHURNS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No, 131,026, datedSeptember 3, 1872.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, ORREN A. ANTHONY, of Mayfield, in the county ofFulton and in the State of New York, have invented certain new anduseful Improvements in Ghurns; and do hereby declare that the followingis a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had tothe accompanying drawing and to the letters of reference marked thereonmaking a part of this specification.

The nature of my invention consists in the construction and arrangementof a churn, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.

In order to enable others skilled in the art to which my inventionappertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe itsconstruction and operation, referring to'the annexed drawing, in which-Figure 1 is a perspective view of my churn, and Fig.2 shows theconstruction of the churndasher.

A represents a box of any suitable dimensions, provided with two legs, BB, on each side, which legs are placed in an inclined position, meetingin the center above the box, and forming bearings for a rocking-shaft,G. This rocking-shaft thus extends across the center of thebox, and fromthe center extends downward a short bar, E, to the lower end of which issecured a head, D, running parallel with the rocking-shaft. From thishead extends downward a center bar, H, and a series of slats, G

G, on each side thereof. The center bar H is beveled, as shown, itslower end terminating in a sharp edge. The slats G G on the two sides ofthe center bar H are set at opposite angles, as shown in Fig. 2, and ontop of the head D is placed a bar, J, in the center, the ends of whichare beveled and extend beyond the sides of the head D. Upon one end ofthe shaft 0 is attached a lever, L, by means of which said shaft and theentire dasher are rocked back and forth. By this dasher the cream isthoroughly broken up and rapidly converted into butter.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, anddesire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. The within-described churn-dasher, consisting of the head D, centerbar H, slats G G, and beveled bar J, all constructed and ar rangedsubstantially as herein set forth.

2. The combination of the box A, rocking shaft (3, with lever L, bar E,head D, center bar H, slats G G, and beveled bar J, all constructed andarranged substantially as herein set forth.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this25th day of May, 1872.
